Reseña del libro "OBADIAH (en Inglés)"
The shortest book in the Old Testament. Twenty-one verses against a nation that watched its brother fall.Edom descended from Esau, Jacob's twin. When Jerusalem was plundered, Edom stood aside, rejoiced, and cut off the survivors as they fled. Obadiah's answer is one of the plainest statements of divine justice in Scripture: "as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee." Within a few centuries of Christ, Edom had disappeared from history.In this volume of a twelve-part verse-by-verse journey through the Minor Prophets, you'll walk through the complete King James text of Obadiah alongside:Edom's full story, from Esau's birthright to the rock city in the mountains south of the Dead SeaWho Obadiah was, and the two main positions on when he wroteA verse-by-verse exposition of all twenty-one versesEdom in the New Testament, including Herod the Great, the Idumean king who tried to kill the infant JesusObadiah and the Dead Sea ScrollsWhere Edom went: its absorption into Judea and its disappearance after the second century ADWhy Obadiah's warnings about pride and standing by still matter, and reflection questions to close the studyPlus a bonus section: The Book of the TwelveFor centuries, God's people copied these twelve prophets onto a single scroll and read them as one book.
